minimalist shave
4 days since my last shave, but I couldn't stand to go to work without a quick shave this morning
cold water on face
Robeson 15-A-250 straight razor
1X WTG
3 minutes total!
no cuts, nicks, or irritation, and the cheeks got BBS
I will not push my luck and try this often, but I consider it a milestone to confidently shave this way and not hack my face

Last night:
Vintage scuttle
Cavendish Black soap
B. Altman & Co. pure badger brush
Genco 5/8 round-point
Gillette "Fat Boy"
Black Bear brand strop
Nivea a/s balm for sensitive skin
moustache and goatee went down the drain this time. Started with Genco, in the middle blood sugar dropped and finished hurriedly with Gillette....somehow an open blade combined with the low blood sugar shakes didn't seem too appealing.
